[PATCH 1/3] perf test: Clarify some error reports in the open syscall test

From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo
Date: Tue Jan 04 2011 - 12:18:30 EST


From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@xxxxxxxxxx>

Rebooted my devel machine, first thing I ran was perf test, that expects
debugfs to be mounted, test fails. Be more clear about it.

Also add missing newlines and add more informative message when
sys_perf_event_open fails.
